GM Lee - Tks for input. I don't have an analyzer here. Best I can do is an old military AN/PRM-10 GDO. I think (since I never venture up into that region) it goes up to a couple hundred mhz so will eventually try that. I'm primarily interested in moving all this estate stuff out of my garage at the moment. Its so packed out there with it (and my own gear) you can't blow smoke in there. Man, I'll never get involved with an estate again, at least not thats 100% stuff I don't understand (maybe would do it with vintage tube HF stuff, etc). That pix on the website was a dead ringer for what we have here. Only difference was the overall length (I had 7'2" and their catalog had 8') but then I realized, I measured to the end of the element (the black rod) only and the catalog probably measured the overall lenght (including the base) which I didn't. Now we're both at 8'. Anyway, again, tks for the invaluable help. 73 Walt (N4GL)

To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, August 18, 2009, 3:29 PM Exactly right, and since they were black in color, I would guess they were older antennas from Comet . But thats only a guess. If you have an antenna analyzer check and see what the resonant frequency is. de Lee K4LJP 73 On Tue, Aug 18, 2009 at 2:58 PM, Walter Treftz <sjotrol...@yahoo. com> wrote: GA Lee - mni tks for the response. "repeater pair" -- do you mean, perhaps, one was used for rcvr and one for xmtr? The SK had his own 220 repeater for use of just him and his XYL so it could well be possible. Any idea on the mfr or model? With that maybe I could find something online. Would a pix help you ID it? If so, I can take some and send them to you. 73 Walt (N4GL) --- On Tue, 8/18/09, Lee Pennington <localjunkpeddler@ gmail.com> wrote: From: Lee Pennington <localjunkpeddler@ gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] Antenna Type?

There are two of them here, one is new. The SK was DEEP into VHF/UHF (having his own 2m & 220 repeaters) so feel they are maybe 2m or 220 mhz. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. There are no numbers or mfr names on either. Both are identical. Black plastic construction 7 ft 2 in +/- long 1" dia at bottom of the element, 3/4" at the top. Single vertical member UHF coax connector on the bottom 3 ea 12" horizontal ground plane elements at the bottom. 73 Walt (N4GL) -- "Always drink upstream from the herd." -- "Always drink upstream from the herd."
